It’s a shame because I like the look of this car, but they need to up their game to compete with the competition. Panoramic sunroof and ambient lighting of some sorts would be nice even as a package that you can buy, but they don’t even offer that. The things I look for in a car, I have a feeling they refresh model or up the Annie hopefully technology wise, but we’ll see Honda kind of cocky and they know they can sell whatever they put out because devoted buyers will buy them regardless..
One thing I’ve always appreciated about Honda/Acura is that the headlights come on when you unlock the car or open the door. I wish Toyota/Lexus would add this feature.
Same, black seats get too hot and take forever too cool down even if ventilation is on. In fact, the CR-V doesn’t even get seat ventilation which makes me less likely to buy this vehicle.
THANK YOU!!!!! I have begged reviewers to do night time review segments in their auto reviews for years!!! Most never do. Now, why is it that Honda (& Acura) goes cheap-ass on us by NOT giving us illuminated areas around the damn cup holders, inside the center consul or some accent lighting so that the cab is not so damn dark, and also on the drivers side mirror & tailgate not having a puddle light is a disgrace. I have spilled more coffee trying to find the cup holders while driving than a little bit and it is the little things that can be the most annoying over time. And no 360 Camera on the top trim? WTF!!! Honda, I hope you are listening here because these little annoyance's can be the thing that makes me take a Hyundai or a Mazda over YOU!!!
I test drove one...great in most aspects, except the thin uncomfortable seats were pretty horrible. I tried a Pilot too and those were fine. ...and I am pretty thin.
I really enjoy you and your brother’s thoughtful reviews. I was wondering if you could include basic insurance quote for your area. Of course everyone’s rate is different but it is now a significant part of ownership. You could even do it as an index rating. For example our Santa Fe would be a normal at 1. ($1800/yr). The Camry we just got came in at a factor of 1.3. You could use this instead of dollars. I don’t see anyone else doing this and I’m sure you can see the value in helping finding total funding of the car. Again I really enjoy how thorough you guys are.
Thanks! We like that idea. The problem is that the region you live and personal driving histories have so much impact on the rate even more so than the car itself. I think it's difficult to get info about insurance that would apply to everyone.
@@CarConfections I totally get that. What I thought would be valuable Is for example is the Toyota GR way more expensive than a regular Corolla, Camry or a 4 Runner. Is an EV much more to insure than an ICE. I was thinking in general terms not specifics as age, number of tickets, how far you are driving, etc. Just a heads up if you are really interested in a car that might potentially cost you way more insurance instead of another model. Given a $50K price point you have a range of insurance rates due to the nature of the car you purchase. That’s all I was thinking.
I bought a 2025 Honda crv sport hybrid in August 2024. The driver seat gives a backpain and the headlights are poor ( dim ) when you driver at night. If you are considering to buy this car. test drive it at night. Honda purposely put in low quality seats and worse headlights. One night, I drove it when it rained, I almost get involved in an accident because of the poor headlights and zero visibility. Honda should add fog lights. I don't recommend it to buy. I am thinking to trade it for Palisade.
Agreed! Seats are cheap and poor quality. My Cr-V is a year old and the seat is so uncomfortable and already looks worn out thanks to Honda’s cheapness in the fit and finish of the seats and the interior. The lights are awful! No change in brightness when high beams turn on and the interior lighting is even worse. Honda cheaper out on the whole car.
These headlights are the worst on the new CR-V. I have a 23 Sport Hybrid and the high beams never seem bright enough or different than the daytime running lights. So dim and dull. Just like the Cr-V’s poorly thought out interior. Honda really is ripping off consumers with cheap products and parts and overcharging for next to nothing for the inside and outside.
3:44 the trunk lighting is worst in class. They cheaped out and the back lighting is poor and no space back there. It’s worse than the Civic. So disappointed in my CR-V. I can’t wait to get rid of it after the lease end.
6:43 the half digital gauge is cheap and one thing that confuses me about Honda. The Civic has a fully digital gauge cluster with personalization. The CR-V already behind the times out the gate.
Hondas are so boring boo boo!!!! Imagine pulling up to the club in a Honda!!! Ain’t gonna happen boo boo!!!! I need a Bimmer or Benz at the very least!!! I’m a hot gurl and you best believe I know the worth of my phat yams!!!!!!
